Linkin Park Paid Tribute To The Late Chester Bennington

Linkin Park's Chester Bennington died by suicide on July 20, and yesterday, his band honoured him at the AMAs in LA.

After nabbing the award for favorite alternative rock artist, Mike Shinoda took the opportunity to not only dedicate the award to Chester, but to give the audience an important life lesson.

"We want to dedicate this award to him, to his memory, to his talent, to his sense of humour, to his joy," he said. "And remember, you guys, all of you, tonight, whether you're a fan or an artist, I want you guy to take a moment to appreciate what you've got and make Chester proud."
